Buy your $2000 SSD for your $600 console to play the latest shooty mc bang bang open world slog today!

Sabarent's QLC 8TB drive is only $1299, and I can take a pretty good guess that these teamgroup drives are QLC. If it's TLC then the 8TB model may be much more interesting....

Yet-another expected Ludicrous Speed SSD that's only in there becausde Sony was too cheap on memory to quadruple it over PS4.

I think that using the same smart memory caching with SATA 3 6.0 Gbps SSDs on PCs would have given them about the same overall load times (with much more console longevity, especially when you consider the main memory bandwidth is 448GB/s, so easier to just keep twice the capacity full between frames, and perform MORE DETAILED EFFECTS.),

whereas this trash will always be restricted to whatever it can stream over 8GB/s, and will hit that 16GB memory wall quite quick. I do think that they could have afforded 32GB GDDR6, if they had compromised on a 6Gbps QLC ssd (same read rates as a TLC).

At last time when I read reviews of high class SSD m.2 to pcie 4.0 X4 somewhere with latest firmware updates I see that two models exceed above 100MB/s read speed of random small files in CrystalMark...I forgot website name, but was one of famous in list with sites for hardware. Is possible TPU(Wizzard) to make big review with many models SSD's something new models and older too, retested?
